You're right about that. I live in SC, one of the most conservative states in the nation, and he's doing well here. In fact, the SC GOP Chairman was quoted in a newspaper the other day saying that Rudy is terrific, etc. I don't think he came right out and endorsed him, but it was clear he likes him a lot and thinks he'd make a good president.
Heck, ultra Pat Robertson said on national television that Rudy would make a good president.
You just don't get it. EVERYONE is a Traitor except the tiny dwindling band of Hunterites. What they will do when HE endorses Guliani is anyone's guess.
